What Romelu Lukaku did in first Chelsea training session after £98m transfer stirred memories

 




New Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku appears to be extending a tradition of becoming friends with the Chalobah brothers upon his return to Stamford Bridge.


The Belgian became the Blues’ record signing last week as he rejoined the club in a £98m move from Serie A champions Inter Milan.The switch signalled his return to west London approximately seven years after his first spell as a Chelsea player came to an end with a permanent transfer to Everton.


Since then, former Anderlecht man Lukaku has had spells with the Toffees, Manchester United and of course Inter before sealing his move back.Following confirmation of the deal, Lukaku had to oversee a period of self-isolation before he could be fully integrated into the squad. That is now over and in a video released by the club, the 28-year-old was seen getting ready for training with young defender Trevoh Chalobah.


With the two getting friendly, it appears that a tradition has been extended at Stamford Bridge with Lukaku having previously revealed that he was friends with Trevoh’s older brother Nathaniel, who was a Blue between 2005 and 2017 ahead of a permanent switch to Watford.

After losing the FA Cup final just two weeks prior to Saturday's showpiece event, it was the perfect way for the Blues to respond and clinch their first piece of silverware under Tuchel. Although the German has enjoyed an excellent level of success in his relatively short time in charge at Stamford Bridge with the players he already has at his disposal, it is only natural that a head coach would wish to put his own stamp of authority on his squad.

Nuno Tavares, Albert Sambi Lokonga and Ben White have already been signed, sealed and delivered with the Gunners splashing a combined fee of £73m to bring the trio to north London. However, Friday night's 2-0 loss to Brentford in the opening game of the new Premier League season further exposed a problem that could stop Arsenal from mounting a top-four - or perhaps more realistically - top-six challenge this term.
